Allow Xen tmem shim to be built/loaded as a module. Xen self-ballooning and frontswap-selfshrinking are now also "lazily" initialized when the Xen tmem shim is loaded as a module, unless explicitly disabled by module parameters. Note runtime dependency disallows loading if cleancache/frontswap lazy initialization patches are not present. If built-in (not built as a module), the original mechanism of enabling via a kernel boot parameter is retained, but this should be considered deprecated. Note that module unload is explicitly not yet supported.

With the goal of allowing tmem backends (zcache, ramster, Xen tmem) to be built/loaded as modules rather than built-in and enabled by a boot parameter, this patch provides "lazy initialization", allowing backends to register to cleancache even after filesystems were mounted. Calls to init_fs and init_shared_fs are remembered as fake poolids but no real tmem_pools created. On backend registration the fake poolids are mapped to real poolids and respective tmem_pools.

Frontswap initialization routine depends on swap_lock, which want to be atomic about frontswap's first appearance. IOW, frontswap is not present and will fail all calls OR frontswap is fully functional but if new swap_info_struct isn't registered by enable_swap_info, swap subsystem doesn't start I/O so there is no race between init procedure and page I/O working on frontswap. So let's remove unnecessary swap_lock dependency.

After allowing tmem backends to build/run as modules, frontswap_enabled always true if defined CONFIG_FRONTSWAP. But frontswap_test() depends on whether backend is registered, mv it into frontswap.c using fronstswap_ops to make the decision. frontswap_set/clear are not used outside frontswap, so don't export them.

Call cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent() to maintain interactivity. Before this patch: void shrink_dcache_parent(struct dentry * parent) { while ((found = select_parent(parent, &dispose)) != 0) shrink_dentry_list(&dispose); } select_parent() populates the dispose list with dentries which shrink_dentry_list() then deletes. select_parent() carefully uses need_resched() to avoid doing too much work at once. But neither shrink_dcache_parent() nor its called functions call cond_resched(). So once need_resched() is set select_parent() will return single dentry dispose list which is then deleted by shrink_dentry_list(). This is inefficient when there are a lot of dentry to process. This can cause softlockup and hurts interactivity on non preemptable kernels. This change adds cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent(). The benefit of this is that need_resched() is quickly cleared so that future calls to select_parent() are able to efficiently return a big batch of dentry. These additional cond_resched() do not seem to impact performance, at least for the workload below. Here is a program which can cause soft lockup if other system activity sets need_resched(). int main() { struct rlimit rlim; int i; int f[100000]; char buf[20]; struct timeval t1, t2; double diff; /* cleanup past run */ system("rm -rf x"); /* boost nfile rlimit */ rlim.rlim_cur = 200000; rlim.rlim_max = 200000; if (setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, &rlim)) err(1, "setrlimit"); /* make directory for files */ if (mkdir("x", 0700)) err(1, "mkdir"); if (gettimeofday(&t1, NULL)) err(1, "gettimeofday"); /* populate directory with open files */ for (i = 0; i < 100000; i++) { snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "x/%d", i); f[i] = open(buf, O_CREAT); if (f[i] == -1) err(1, "open"); } /* close some of the files */ for (i = 0; i < 85000; i++) close(f[i]); /* unlink all files, even open ones */ system("rm -rf x"); if (gettimeofday(&t2, NULL)) err(1, "gettimeofday"); diff = (((double)t2.tv_sec * 1000000 + t2.tv_usec) - ((double)t1.tv_sec * 1000000 + t1.tv_usec)); printf("done: %g elapsed\n", diff/1e6); return 0; } Signed-off-by: Greg Thelen <gthelen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When we run the crackerjack testsuite, the inotify_add_watch test is stalled. This is caused by the invalid mask 0 - the task is waiting for the event but it never comes. inotify_add_watch() should return -EINVAL as it did before commit 676a0675 ("inotify: remove broken mask checks causing unmount to be EINVAL"). That commit removes the invalid mask check, but that check is needed. Check the mask's ALL_INOTIFY_BITS before the inotify_arg_to_mask() call. If none are set, just return -EINVAL. Because IN_UNMOUNT is in ALL_INOTIFY_BITS, this change will not trigger the problem that above commit fixed.

Pull core timer updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes in this cycle's merge are: - Implement shadow timekeeper to shorten in kernel reader side blocking, by Thomas Gleixner. - Posix timers enhancements by Pavel Emelyanov: - allocate timer ID per process, so that exact timer ID allocations can be re-created be checkpoint/restore code. - debuggability and tooling (/proc/PID/timers, etc.) improvements. - suspend/resume enhancements by Feng Tang: on certain new Intel Atom processors (Penwell and Cloverview), there is a feature that the TSC won't stop in S3 state, so the TSC value won't be reset to 0 after resume. This can be taken advantage of by the generic via the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP flag: instead of using the RTC to recover/approximate sleep time, the main (and precise) clocksource can be used. - Fix /proc/timer_list for 4096 CPUs by Nathan Zimmer: on so many CPUs the file goes beyond 4MB of size and thus the current simplistic seqfile approach fails. Convert /proc/timer_list to a proper seq_file with its own iterator. - Cleanups and refactorings of the core timekeeping code by John Stultz. - International Atomic Clock time is managed by the NTP code internally currently but not exposed externally. Separate the TAI code out and add CLOCK_TAI support and TAI support to the hrtimer and posix-timer code, by John Stultz. - Add deep idle support enhacement to the broadcast clockevents core timer code, by Daniel Lezcano: add an opt-in CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ clockevents feature (which will be utilized by future clockevents driver updates), which allows the use of IRQ affinities to avoid spurious wakeups of idle CPUs - the right CPU with an expiring timer will be woken. - Add new ARM bcm281xx clocksource driver, by Christian Daudt - ... various other fixes and cleanups" * 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (52 commits) clockevents: Set dummy handler on CPU_DEAD shutdown timekeeping: Update tk->cycle_last in resume posix-timers: Remove unused variable clockevents: Switch into oneshot mode even if broadcast registered late timer_list: Convert timer list to be a proper seq_file timer_list: Split timer_list_show_tickdevices posix-timers: Show sigevent info in proc file posix-timers: Introduce /proc/PID/timers file posix timers: Allocate timer id per process (v2) timekeeping: Make sure to notify hrtimers when TAI offset changes hrtimer: Fix ktime_add_ns() overflow on 32bit architectures hrtimer: Add expiry time overflow check in hrtimer_interrupt timekeeping: Shorten seq_count region timekeeping: Implement a shadow timekeeper timekeeping: Delay update of clock->cycle_last timekeeping: Store cycle_last value in timekeeper struct as well ntp: Remove ntp_lock, using the timekeeping locks to protect ntp state timekeeping: Simplify tai updating from do_adjtimex timekeeping: Hold timekeepering locks in do_adjtimex and hardpps timekeeping: Move ADJ_SETOFFSET to top level do_adjtimex() ...
